Tangle Tower's art gallery is a cool window into great character design
Have no character in your game that you do not know to be useful or believe to be beautiful
Katharine has been raving about Tangle Tower ever since she reviewed it a couple of years ago, and I finally sat down and played it this weekend. I can confirm it's really good! A lovely point and click mystery with some tricksy puzzles, but unlimited goes so you still get to feel clever - plus the story plays with some mystery tropes in really fun …

What happens when you make a Crusader Kings 3 ruler with every stat set to max?
The Age of Men is over. The Time of Gigaknight has come.
The Vatican City, 1146 AD, and 90 years into a game of Crusader Kings III. As the doors of the conclave chamber are sealed, a ring of hangdog cardinals stare miserably at each other in the sudden gloom. It is time, once again, to choose a new Pope. Once, this would have been a gathering seething with the ambitions of powerful men. Now, it …
